Those interested in attending the federal Title IX Town Hall meeting in Atlanta, Ga. later this month still have an opportunity to register and be included.    The first Town Hall meeting will be held at the Wyndham Downtown Hotel, 160 Spring St., NW., Atlanta, Georgia, 30309 on Tuesday, August 27 and Wednesday, August 28.     The public may speak on Tuesday, August 27 at between 2 p.m.- 5 p.m. The public may also speak on Wednesday, August 28 between 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.    Last week, the government announced that those interested in participating in the public portions of the Commission on Opportunity in Athletics must first register with the commission in order to guarantee the opportunity to attend and speak on the issue.    At each Town Hall, each speaker will have between 3-5 minutes of time. There may be limits on the number of people who can attend and speak, so it is very important to register right now! Don't wait - DO IT RIGHT NOW.    The Town Halls will also be held in three other cities, with public participation on the following dates: Chicago, Ill. (Sept. 17), Colorado Springs, Colo. (October 22) and San Diego, Calif. (November 20).    USA Wrestling strongly requests that those who wish to attend the Chicago, Colorado Springs and San Diego meetings register right away as well. The participation opportunities at all meetings will be done on a first-come, first-served basis. If you want your voice to be heard, you must register before others take your spot away.
